Does God Want Us To Be Poor Or Rich?

  • サマリー

  • Key Takeaways:

    • Historical Perspectives: Medieval monks, like Saint Francis of Assisi, believed that renouncing material wealth brought them closer to God.

    • Prosperity Gospel: Modern teachings often equate monetary wealth with spiritual blessings, suggesting that God desires us to be rich.

    • Biblical Insights: Paul's letters highlight the importance of spiritual wealth, noting that Jesus became poor in spirit so others could become spiritually rich.

    • The Root of All Evil: Both Jesus and Paul warn that the love of money can lead to various forms of evil and spiritual destruction.

    • God's Kingdom Economics: Material wealth is not an end but a means to fulfill God's purposes, emphasizing generosity and stewardship.

    Notable Quotes:

    1. "Saint Francis of Assisi saw the futility of his riches and gave them all away to become a monk."

    2. "In God's kingdom, eternal things are more important than material."

    3. "The love of money is the root of all kinds of evil."

    4. "God wants us to have as much money as we need to fulfill His purpose faithfully and to bring Him glory."

    5. "It's not money itself that's the problem; it's our attachment to it."

    The God of the Bible is a talking God. All throughout the Scriptures, God is seen talking to people. First to the prophets, then most fully in Jesus and today through his Holy Spirit. When we choose to follow Jesus, the Spirit speaks to remind us of all that Jesus established and apply it to our lives.

    So how does the Spirit speak? How do we know it’s God? And what happens afterwards? Join Rev Dr Tania Harris as she explores what the Spirit is saying to us. Everyday God Conversations will encourage you weekly to reflect on the God-conversations of Scripture, the ultimate God-conversation in Jesus and to hear from the Holy Spirit yourself. Remember, it was never meant to be a one-way conversation!
